Welcome back!

Neptune has the kind of tightness that feels like obsession — exactly what you want in an oyster bar. Claim one of their 22 spots in any way you can. You'll be charmed by the marble bar, subway-tile walls, and scrawled-over mirrors; but it's the food that you'll remember. Start with — what else? — a freshly shucked plate, then move on to a buttermilk johnnycake and a lobster roll (voted one of America's best by Food & Wine in 2013).
